    Abstract:
    The examination of 86 helicopter pilots has shown that their exposure to vibration leads to biliary and gallbladder damage which aggravates with longer service. As indicated by spectroscopy and gas-liquid chromatography, vibration affects colloid-osmotic properties of bile: molecules grow in size, bile acids retention becomes longer.
